RE: IMPROVED TYPE ALTO HORN.

With reference to ROY. {Mr H. Royce - Buyer} 1/MG.3.1.33. we have handed to the Experimental Department the newsample Lucas Alto horn, but what we wish to know is whether Lucas can give us the present type of Lucas horn with the rim made of Staybrite instead of being chromium plated.

The new sample which they have submitted will not go in the proposed new position, hence the reason we wish them to give us this information in regard to the present type.
